 as a room 

 full of sunshine 



C. & J. Crocus arc the Improved 

 Strains, noted for large flowers and 

 brightest colors. They are entirely 

 hardy, and like a rich, dry soil and 

 sunny location. They are suitable for 

 planting in beds and borders, also for 

 edging in ribbon lines of any desired 

 color; for planting in the grass in lawn 

 or yard. Crocuses are also very highly 

 valued for house culture.

Scilla, Snowflake, Crocus too; 

 If you wait until November 



These won't wake so soon for you.'^ 



Plant the Crocus 2K inchts dtep, in the autumn. They look especially 

 well scattered over the lawn as in this picture
